Interrogative pronouns

The basic interrogative adjective is:

• which: xó̱

It can play the role of a basic interrogative pronoun, if used alone. Other interrogative forms, however, can be built by using the interrogative adjective with other generic or specific nouns or also with postpositions:

• xó̱ žı̄: which thing? = what?
• xó̱ χɛ̱́: which person? = who?
• xó̱ wɛ: which amount? = how much, how many? (requires the partitive preposition)
• rɔ xó̱ wɛ: in which time? = when?
• hı̱n xó̱ řø̌ : in which place? = where?

Within an interrogative clause, pronouns usually are usually placed in their syntactical position according to their role.
